Experimental Destruction


Inequality:

Children of Men is a movie where women aren’t able to have children anymore which causes devastation among society as no child has been born for 18 years. Unknown to them an African woman is pregnant and thus needs to be transported away before people suspect what’s going on. Since people aren’t able to have children anymore the population is dwindling. Once people find out they attempt to go after the woman as a way to experiment on her. It seems like the population is going against women as a way to experiment on them to find the source of their infertility. They want to experiment until they can find the cure; but they’re too obsessed with returning the population to normal that they cast away rights. Since people want their legacy to be carried on in their children they’ll reproduce, though in this society they aren’t able to do that and by experimenting they attempt to find a cure with little to no possibility that they will. It’s like they’re treating the pregnant woman as if she was a miracle but the problem is that she’s not willing to allow the society to take her baby away, so she creates a way to hide herself. If she was taken into custody she would have the chances of losing her baby and in another way she could save the human population. However, she rather save her own child and move on rather than help the population; but society won’t allow her to do that; thus they’re taking her own rights away as a way to save the population. Either way if she didn’t want to help then she doesn’t – forcing her would only take her rights away; but this shows that people will do whatever they want when an opposing side disagrees.

How would government help the people – would they choose saving one person or the whole population? Is it one person’s right to save the population even if they don’t want too? Will people continue to fight for what they think is right?

In conclusion the government will always do what’s best for the entire population even if they had to steal the rights from one person. The fact is that if it’s one person they would rather save the whole population compared to only one. If someone had to save the whole population they wouldn’t have too, but it’ll be best if they did.
